<h2>DESCRIPTION |

<a name="DESCRIPTION"></a> |
|
</h2> |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>vlmcsd.ini</b> |
|
(or simply called the "ini file") is a |
|
configuration file for <b>vlmcsd</b>(8). By default vlmcsd |
|
does not use a configuration file. It is completely optional |
|
and for advanced users only. You must use the <b>-i</b> |
|
option on the vlmcsd command line to use an ini file. There |
|
is no default name or default location for the ini file.</p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">Everything, |
|
that can be configured in the ini file, may also be |
|
specified on the command line. Any configuration option |
|
specified on the command line takes precedence over the |
|
respective configuration line in the ini file.</p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>Benefits of |
|
a configuration file</b></p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">While you can |
|
use the configuration file to simply modify the default |
|
behavior of vlmcsd, it can also be used to change the |
|
configuration of vlmcsd after you sent a HUP |
|
<b>signal</b>(7). Whenever you send SIGHUP, the |
|
configuration file will be re-read. Any changes you made to |
|
the ini file will be reflected after vlmcsd received the |
|
hangup signal.</p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>Differences |
|
between command line and configuration file</b></p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">If you specify |
|
an illegal option or option argument on the command line, |
|
vlmcsd displays help and exits. If you specify an incorrect |
|
<i>keyword</i> or <i>argument</i> in the ini file, vlmcsd |
|
displays a warning with some information, ignores the |
|
respective line and continues. This is intentional and |
|
prevents vlmcsd from aborting after a SIGHUP if the |
|
configuration was modified incorrectly.</p> |
|
|
|
<h2>SYNTAX |
|
<a name="SYNTAX"></a> |
|
</h2> |
|
|
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">vlmcsd.ini is a |
|
UTF-8 encoded text file with each line being in the format |
|
<i>keyword</i> = <i>argument</i>. The <i>keyword</i> is not |
|
case-sensitive. The <i>argument</i> is treated literally. It |
|
is neither required nor allowed to enclose the |
|
<i>argument</i> in any form of quote characters except when |
|
quote characters are part of the argument itself. Whitespace |
|
characters are ignored only</p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">- at the |
|
beginning of a line <br> |
|
- between the <i>keyword</i> and ’=’ <br> |
|
- between ’=’ and the <i>argument</i></p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">Lines, that |
|
start with ’#’ or ’;’ are treated as |
|
comments. Empty lines are ignored as well. If a |
|
<i>keyword</i> is repeated in another line, vlmcsd will use |
|
the <i>argument</i> of the last occurence of the |
|
<i>keyword</i>. An exception to this is the Listen |
|
<i>keyword</i> which can be specified multiple times and |
|
causes vlmcsd to listen on more than one IP address and/or |
|
port.</p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">Some |
|
<i>argument</i>s are binary arguments that need to be either |
|
TRUE or FALSE. You can use "Yes", "On" |
|
or "1" as an alias for TRUE and "No", |
|
"Off" or "0" as an alias for FALSE. |
|
Binary arguments are case-insensitive.</p> |

</h2> |
|
|
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">The following |
|

|
<p>This defines on what combinations of IP addresses and |

|
more than once. The <i>argument</i> has the form |
|
<i>ipaddress</i>[:<i>port</i>]. If you omit the <i>port</i>, |
|
the default port of 1688 is used. If the <i>ipaddress</i> |
|
contains colons and a <i>port</i> is used, you must enclose |
|
the <i>ipaddress</i> in brackets. The default is to listen |
|
to 0.0.0.0:1688 and [::]:1688 which means listen to all IPv4 |
|
and all IPv6 addresses. See the <b>-L</b> option in |
|
<b>vlmcsd</b>(8) for more info about the syntax. If you use |
|
<b>-L</b> or <b>-P</b> on the command line, all |
|
<b>Listen</b> keywords in the ini file will be ignored. The |

compatible VPN adapter to create additional local IPv4 |
|
addresses (like 127.0.0.1) that appear as remote IPv4 |
|
addresses to the system. This allows product activation |
|
using a local instance of vlmcsd. This feature is only |
|
available in Windows and Cygwin builds of vlmcsd since it is |
|
not of any use on other operating systems. Compatible VPN |
|
adapters are Tap-windows version 8.2 or higher (from |
|
OpenVPN) and the TeamViewer VPN adapter. There is a special |
|
<i>vpn-adapter-name</i>. A single period (.) instructs |
|
vlmcsd to use the first available compatible VPN adapter. |
|
The <i>vpn-adapter-name</i> is <b>not</b> case-sensitive. If |
|
the <i>vpn-adapter-name</i> contains spaces (e.g. Ethernet |
|
3), do <b>not</b> enclose it in quotes.</p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:22%; margin-top: 1em">The default |
|
<i>ipv4-address</i> is 10.10.10.9 and the default |
|
<i>cidr-mask</i> is 30. If you are using the default values, |
|
your VPN adapter uses an IPv4 address of 10.10.10.9 and you |
|
can set your activation client to use the easy to remember |
|
address 10.10.10.10 (e.g. slmgr /skms 10.10.10.10 or cscript |
|
ospp.vbs /sethst:10.10.10.10).</p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:22%; margin-top: 1em">The |
|
<i>dhcp-lease-duration</i> is a number optionally followed |
|
by s, m, h, d or w to indicate seconds, minutes, hours, days |
|
or weeks. The default <i>dhcp-lease-duration</i> is 1d (one |
|
day). It is normally not required to change this value.</p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:22%; margin-top: 1em">It is advised |
|
not to manually configure your OpenVPN TAP or TeamViewer VPN |
|
adapter in "Network Connections". If you set the |
|
IPv4 configuration manually anyway, the IPv4 address and the |
|
subnet mask must match the <b>VPN=</b> directive. It is safe |
|
leave the IPv4 configuration to automatic (DHCP). vlmcsd |
|
will wait up to four seconds for the DHCP configuration to |
|
complete before binding to and listenin on any |
|
interfaces.</p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:22%; margin-top: 1em">You should be |
|
aware that only one program can use a VPN adapter at a time. |
|
If you use the TeamViewer VPN adapter for example, you will |
|
not be able to use the VPN feature of TeamViewer as long as |
|
vlmcsd is running. The same applies to OpenVPN TAP adapters |
|
that are in use by other programs (for example OpenVPN, |
|
QEMU, Ratiborus VM, aiccu, etc.). The best way to avoid |
|
conflicts is to install Tap-Windows from OpenVPN, cd to |
|
C:\Program Files\TAP-Windows\bin and run addtap.bat to |
|
install an additional TAP adapter. Go to "Network |
|
Connections" and rename the new adapter to |
|
"vlmcsd" and specify <b>VPN=vlmcsd</b> to use |
|
it.</p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:11%;"><b>UseNDR64</b></p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:22%;">Can be TRUE or FALSE. Specifies |
|
whether you want to use the NDR64 transfer syntax. See |
|
options <b>-n0</b> and <b>-n1</b> in <b>vlmcsd</b>(8). The |
|
default is TRUE.</p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:11%;"><b>UseBTFN</b></p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:22%;">Can be TRUE or FALSE. Specifies |
|
whether you want to use bind time feature negotiation in |
|
RPC. See options <b>-b0</b> and <b>-b1</b> in |
|
<b>vlmcsd</b>(8). The default is TRUE.</p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:11%;"><b>RandomizationLevel</b></p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:22%;">The <i>argument</i> must 0, 1 |
|
or 2. This specifies the ePID randomization level. See |
|
options <b>-r0</b>, <b>-r1</b> and <b>-r2</b> in |
|
<b>vlmcsd</b>(8). The default randomization level is 1. A |
|
<b>RandomizationLevel</b> of 2 is not recommended and should |
|
be treated as a debugging level.</p> |

should use an offcial LCID. A list of assigned LCIDs can be |
|
found at |

|
</table> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:11%;"><b>MaxWorkers</b></p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:22%;">The <i>argument</i> specifies |
|
the maximum number of worker processes or threads that will |
|
be used to serve activation requests concurrently. This is |
|
the same as specifying <b>-m</b> on the command line. |
|
Minimum is 1. The maximum is platform specific and is at |
|
least 32767 but is likely to be greater on most systems. The |
|
default is no limit.</p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:11%;"><b>ConnectionTimeout</b></p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:22%;">Used to control when the vlmcsd |
|
disconnects idle TPC connections. The default is 30 seconds. |
|
This is the same setting as <b>-t</b> on the command |
|
line.</p> |
|
|
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:11%;"><b>DisconnectClientsImmediately</b></p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:22%;">Set this to TRUE to disconnect |
|
a client after it got an activation response regardless |
|
whether a timeout has occured or not. The default is FALSE. |
|
Setting this to TRUE is non-standard behavior. Use only if |
|
you are experiencing DoS or DDoS attacks. On the command |
|
line you control this behavior with options <b>-d</b> and |
|
<b>-k</b>.</p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:11%;"><b>PidFile</b></p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:22%;">Write a pid file. The |
|
<i>argument</i> is the full pathname of a pid file. The pid |
|
file contains is single line containing the process id of |
|
the vlmcsd process. It can be used to stop (SIGTERM) or |
|
restart (SIGHUP) vlmcsd. This directive can be overriden |
|
using <b>-p</b> on the command line.</p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:11%;"><b>LogFile</b></p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:22%;">Write a log file. The |
|
<i>argument</i> is the full pathname of a log file. On a |
|
unixoid OS and with Cygwin you can use the special filename |
|
’syslog’ to log to the syslog facility. This is |
|
the same as specifying <b>-l</b> on the command line.</p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:11%;"><b>KmsData</b></p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:22%;">Use a KMS data file. The |
|
<i>argument</i> is the full pathname of a KMS data file. By |
|
default vlmcsd only contains the minimum product data that |
|
is required to perform all operations correctly. You may use |
|
a more complete KMS data file that contains all detailed |
|
product names. This is especially useful if you are logging |
|
KMS requests. If you don’t log, there is no need to |
|
load an external KMS data file.</p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:22%; margin-top: 1em">You may use |
|
<b>KmsData = -</b> to prevent the default KMS data |
|
file to be loaded.</p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:11%;"><b>LogDateAndTime</b></p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:22%;">Can be TRUE or FALSE. The |
|
default is TRUE. If set to FALSE, logging output does not |
|
include date and time. This is useful if you log to |
|
<b>stdout</b>(3) which is redirected to another logging |
|
mechanism that already includes date and time in its output, |
|
for instance <b>systemd-journald</b>(8). If you log to |
|
<b>syslog</b>(3), <b>LogDateAndTime</b> is ignored and date |
|
and time will never be included in the output sent to |
|
<b>syslog</b>(3). Using the command line you control this |
|
setting with options <b>-T0</b> and <b>-T1</b>.</p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:11%;"><b>LogVerbose</b></p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:22%;">Set this to either TRUE or |
|
FALSE. The default is FALSE. If set to TRUE, more details of |
|
each activation will be logged. You use <b>-v</b> and |
|
<b>-q</b> in the command line to control this setting. |
|
<b>LogVerbose</b> has an effect only if you specify a log |
|
file or redirect logging to <b>stdout</b>(3).</p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:11%;"><b>WhitelistingLevel</b></p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:22%;">Can be 0, 1, 2 or 3. The |
|
default is 0. Sets the whitelisting level to determine which |
|
products vlmcsd activates or refuses.</p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:29%; margin-top: 1em"><b>0</b>: |
|
activate all products with an unknown, retail or |
|
beta/preview KMS ID. <b><br> |
|
1</b>: activate products with a retail or beta/preview KMS |
|
ID but refuse to activate products with an unknown KMS ID. |
|
<b><br> |
|
2</b>: activate products with an unknown KMS ID but refuse |
|
products with a retail or beta/preview KMS ID. <b><br> |

|
|
<p style="margin-left:11%;"><b>CheckClientTime</b></p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:22%;">Can be TRUE or FALSE. The |
|
default is FALSE. If you set this to TRUE <b>vlmcsd</b>(8) |
|
checks if the client time differs no more than four hours |
|
from the system time. This is useful to prevent emulator |
|
detection. A client that tries to detect an emulator could |
|
simply send two subsequent request with two time stamps that |
|
differ more than four hours from each other. If both |
|
requests succeed, the server is an emulator. If you set this |
|
to TRUE on a system with no reliable time source, |
|
activations will fail. It is ok to set the correct system |
|
time after you started <b>vlmcsd</b>(8).</p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:11%;"><b>MaintainClients</b></p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:22%;">Can be TRUE or FALSE (the |
|
default). Disables (FALSE) or enables (TRUE) maintaining a |
|
list of client machine IDs (CMIDs). TRUE is useful to |
|
prevent emulator detection. By maintaing a CMID list, |
|
<b>vlmcsd</b>(8) reports current active clients exactly like |
|
a genuine KMS emulator. This includes bug compatibility to |
|
the extent that you can permanently kill a genuine KMS |
|
emulator by sending an "overcharge request" with a |
|
required client count of 376 or more and then request |
|
activation for 671 clients. <b>vlmcsd</b>(8) can be reset |
|
from this condition by restarting it. If FALSE is used, |
|
<b>vlmcsd</b>(8) reports current active clients as good as |
|
possible. If no client sends an "overcharge |
|
request", it is not possible to detect <b>vlmcsd</b>(8) |
|
as an emulator with |
|
<b>MaintainClients </b>= FALSE. Maintaining |
|
clients requires the allocation of a buffer that is about 50 |
|
kB in size. On hardware with few memory resources use it |
|
only if you really need it.</p> |

<p style="margin-left:22%; margin-top: 1em">If you start |

If you specify FALSE (the default), <b>vlmcsd</b>(8) starts |
|
up as a fully "charged" KMS server. Clients |
|
activate immediately. <b>StartEmpty </b>= TRUE |
|
lets you start up <b>vlmcsd</b>(8) with an empty CMID list. |
|
Activation will start when the required minimum clients (25 |
|
for Windows Client OSses, 5 for Windows Server OSses and |
|
Office) have registered with the KMS server. As long as the |
|
minimum client count has not been reached, clients end up in |
|
HRESULT 0xC004F038 "The count reported by your Key |
|
Management Service (KMS) is insufficient. Please contact |
|
your system administrator". You may use <b>vlmcs</b>(1) |
|
or another KMS client emulator to "charge" |
|
<b>vlmcsd</b>(8). Setting this parameter to TRUE does not |
|
improve emulator detection prevention. It’s primary |
|
purpose is to help developers of KMS clients to test |

"charging" a KMS server.</p> |

3d. Please note that the KMS client decides itself when to |
|
renew activation. Even though vlmcsd sends the renewal |
|
interval you specify, it is no more than some kind of |
|
recommendation to the client. Older KMS clients did follow |
|
the recommendation from a KMS server or emulator. Newer |
|
clients do not.</p> |

|
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">The ePID is |
|
currently a comment only. You can specify any string up to |
|
63 bytes. In Windows 7 Microsoft has blacklisted few ( < |
|
10 ) ePIDs that were used in KMSv5 versions of the |
|
"Ratiborus Virtual Machine". Microsoft has given |
|
up on blacklisting when KMS emulators appeared in the |
|
wild.</p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">Even if you can |
|
use "Activated by cool hacker guys" as an ePID, |
|
you may wish to use ePIDs that cannot be detected as non-MS |
|
ePIDs. If you don’t know how these "valid" |
|
ePIDs look like exactly, do not use GUIDS in vlmcsd.ini. |
|
vlmcsd provides internal mechanisms to generate valid |
|
ePIDs.</p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">If you use |
|
non-ASCII characters in your ePID (you shouldn’t do |
|
anyway), these must be in UTF-8 format. This is especially |
|
important when you run vlmcsd on Windows or cygwin because |
|
UTF-8 is not the default encoding for most editors.</p> |
|
|
|
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">If you are |
|
specifying an optional HWID it follows the same syntax as in |
|
the <b>-H</b> option in <b>vlmcsd</b>(8) ecxept that you |
|
must not enclose a HWID in quotes even if it contains |
|
spaces.</p> |
